The devastation of the recent Sandy Hook tragedy has prompted people to start asking themselves, “What can I do to change this?” and “How can we prevent this from happening again?”
Ann Curry says, “If you do good, you’ll feel good.” She suggests that we all perform 26 Acts of Kindness, 1 act of kindness for every single life that was lost in the shooting (can’t help but cry as I write this).
Here are some ideas to help you spread the kindness. Not everyone is bad. Don’t lose your faith in humanity.
Let’s do what we can, right now, today.
134 Ideas for Random Acts of Kindness…
1. Befriend the lonely person
2. Introduce yourself to your neighbors
3. Compliment a stranger
4. Sing Christmas Carols at a nursing home – Then have everyone over to your house after for cookies and cocoa
5. Adopt an animal from the pound
6. Donate your talents
7. Send paper thank you notes
8. Pay for the coffee, the toll, or the bus fare for the person behind you
9. Let the person who seems rushed cut in front of you
10. Hold your tongue – Pause before speaking or writing when you are mad, agitated or doubtful
11. Be empathetic – Really try to put yourself in the other person’s shoes
12. Be thoughtful – Did your co-worker have a bad day today? Bring her a coffee tomorrow morning.
13. Hold the door open for someone
14. Play cupid – You know those two people who would totally be great together and they just haven’t met yet? Get them in the same room together and let nature take it’s course. Helpful hint from a wannabe match-maker (me) don’t tell them you want to set them up and then sit there and watch them all night long to see how it’s going and if you were right (been there, done that, totally doesn’t work. All I’ve got to say about that is, hello awkward!). Introduce them and then bring up the common ground that they share. “Betty Sue, you’re from New Orleans just like Tim Bob here!” (you like those names don’t you). They just might be a match, and then, at their wedding (we’re going full-on optimist here) you’ll be able to tell everyone, “Told you so!”
15. Give your boxes to someone who is moving
16. Be thankful
17. Be encouraging
18. Let people merge-in during traffic
19. Help people move
20. Say “Thank you”, a lot – Everyone works hard. Thanks are especially important to the postal worker, the government employee, the DMW clerk, the bus driver, the grocery store cashiers (especially when you bring up all that produce and they have to look-up every single code) and baggers
21. Call your parents and tell them you love them
22. Let your partner watch their show – And don’t roll your eyes or huff and puff about it
23. Don’t be annoying – Make a conscious effort to avoid doing the things you know annoy your spouse (or roommates)
24. Send your friend a letter
25. Volunteer at a department of corrections or juvenile hall
26. Spread your skills – If you have a skill (photography, outfit styling, cooking, website programming, etc.) and you know someone who has expressed an interest in what you do offer to teacher them what you know
27. Give freely – Go through your things and give freely to those in need
28. Have a shirt that your friend always compliments you on? Why not give it to her?
29. Offer to get groceries for your friend or relative who has a broken leg or other mobility problem
30. Make extra copies of photos and send them to the people who are in the images
31. Offer to help your friend unpack
32. Call everyone you know and tell them you love them
33. Give warm clothes, shoes, and boots to the homeless
34. Help someone whose car has broken down
35. Connect people to each other
36. Walk the cart back to the front of the store
37. Reach out to a person who has made a difference in your life
38. Send a care package to a solider
39. Listen when no one else wants to
40. Be patient
41. Try to find goodness in the person you don’t like
42. Ask someone if they’ve lost some weight or tell them that they’re “just glowing”
43. Know someone who just had a baby or other major life event? – Bring a meal, offer to clean up their house or do a load of laundry for them.
44. Do you know that your partner hates doing the dishes but you don’t really mind doing them? Do them.
45. Don’t nag – Even if you really, really, really want to
46. Be kind to yourself – Make peace with your past mistakes. Use that knowledge to help others who might be going through the same thing.
47. Let it go
48. Be someone’s cheerleader
49. Already sweeping leaves or shoveling the snow off your sidewalk? – Do your neighbors sidewalk too.
50. Do nice things and don’t tell anyone about it
51. Notice a kid being well-behaved? – Tell their parents how good they are while the kid is standing there. It will encourage the kid to continue being good, and will make the parents feel good.
52. (Along the same lines as #51) Compliment people in front of others – For some reason compliments hold more weight when they’re done in front of others.
53. Bring donuts or other delicious sweets to work
54. Give chocolate generously and often;)
55. Tell your boss how much you like working for them and how much you’ve learned from them over the years
56. Bake a cake for the birthday person
57. Don’t complain
58. Be the eternal optimist of the group
59. Recognize the good in others
60. Look for the best in the situation

75. Tell your partners parents how talented your partner is at something
76. Tip generously
77. Say “Hi” to strangers

80. Offer a ride to someone who is car-less
81. Help that stressed parent by offering to babysit
82. If the work-day is running late and you know your co-worker has somewhere they have to be offer to stay late so they don’t have to worry about figuring it out
83. Thank your co-workers for doing a good job, for getting extra supplies, for thinking ahead, for being easy to work with
84. Donate your old car and clothes to charities

91. Avoid gossip – No need to spread any negativity
92. Give the painter, electrician, or handyman a glass of water or offer them a pop

94. Go to your friends art opening
95. Spread the word – If you know someone who takes pictures, paints interiors, is a super nanny, a wonderful accountant, etc. Let others know. People who work for themselves need word of mouth referrals more than anyone else.
96. Be inviting – Ask people to do something with you
97. Leave extra time in the parking meter
98. Don’t write the complaint letter that you’re thinking about writing
99. Hang out with the person who just moved to town

110. Donate your vacation or sick days to a person at work who is struggling with cancer or another horrible illness
111. Participate – The people who organize events always worry that no one will take part. That ugly sweater contest or bake-off needs you!
112. Respond timely – Even if you have to say, “Hey, just wanted to let you know I got your email and I’ll get right back to you.” People like to know they’re not being ignored.
113. Don’t leave people hanging – If you’re not into something someone suggests just tell them so (especially in a professional or work-related situation – don’t act like they’re a date that you want to stand-up/avoid- not professional or cool, at all. Be kind.)

126. Selflessly help (and promote) others
127. Give a glowing recommendation
128. Tell the person who is looking for a job when you hear about an opening
129. Know that someone was Valedictorian, Homecoming Queen, or Prom King in high school? Tell others because they can’t tell people themselves (without it sounding like they’re bragging)
130. Call your in-laws
131. Help people out who might be feeling awkward
132. Generously give your knowledge
133. Have you discovered something that has changed your life? – Share what you know and inspire others to change their lives too
134. Spread the goodness – Let others know you are on a mission to spread kindness and they will be inspired to do the same
You can be the change you want to see. Let’s do what we can, together.
How do you spread kindness? What are your ideas for random acts of kindness and will you be doing the 26 Acts of Kindness challenge?

This is a sweet and special post.
Thank you so much.
Thank you for spreading this message!
Wow, you are really pretty
The small things always matter. If we all tried to do the tiny things,some of the big things would never materialise.
Super cute illustration.
Thank you, great ideas!
I love this! Was just checking out the 26Acts facebook page this morning. I am so inspired by this project! I hope it keeps going all year.
Thank you for sharing these. They are great and the movement is inspiring. In a convergence of kindness and frugality that I think you might appreciate, I recently had an extra coupon for 50% off any item at a craft store and knew I would not be able to use it, so I gave it away to the person behind me in line. The recipient said, “You’re awesome! Thank you!” It doesn’t take much to make someone’s day a little better, and your day will almost certainly be better for it too.
I like this movement. Especially since the town is saying to please not send anything else and to do something in the name of the victims. I also like the idea of helping out those in need in your own home town. That is the spirit of what Christmas was initially about – not the super hyper “buy, buy, buy” mentality that it has become for most. I especially like the idea of donating time to someone else. Volunteering to watch a toddler for free is a big blessing for many young couples, especially those that do not have family close by. I also like the idea of tipping and / or over-tipping those who perform services for you. Be careful about home baked goods though. Unfortunately, many school districts now have mandates that ALL HOMEMADE GOODS BE THROWN OUT RATHER THAN CONSUMED. They claim that it is a safety issue.
what a great list…and one I think i will keep referring to! :)
Thank you so much for sharing the #26acts idea. Reading this post and then the NBC page with all the pictures and screen captures of wonderful things people are doing for strangers made me cry in the best possible way. It’s beautiful that people can try to bring something positive out of such a tragedy. I really appreciate your many frugal ideas- I’m not in a place to spend a lot of money but I’m still wholeheartedly participating. Thank you!
Wonderful list! I,m going to make copies to share . Thank you so much
I LOVE this! Love it love it love it! I’ve printed it out, I’ll carry it around with me so it’s in my consciousness and I’ll try and do as many as I can. Thank you :)
There were 27 victims that day… let’s not forget the mother… (should be 27 acts of kindness)
That’s a really good point. I mistakenly thought the mother was included in the count of 26.
Love this :)
There are so many things people can do to help others. This year I’m finishing up 366 random acts of kindness. Some of the things I did was
give toys to a local group collecting for foster kids
take food to a food bank
leave coins in kids books at the library
Commented on people’s blogs
Smiled at everyone
Held the door
Gave directions and a map to someone who was lost.
Ordered magazine subscriptions for a nursing home.
Shopped local. Supported local crafters, farmers, and businesses.
Thank you for sharing these ideas! I am just beginning a year of kindness for 2013. I have also started a blog to document my year. I included a link to your blog to share your fabulous ideas. Thanks again!
I love this post! So many great ideas that I’ll definitely be using as I embark on my own challenge of 365 RAOK :)
LOVE this. Just reading them made me all excited to be little more thoughtful. Esp. love the idea to drop quarters on the ground, for people to find. Finding them always makes me feel lucky!!
it is super fun to find coins huh! makes me feel like a kid whenever i find them.
This is the most beautiful thing that I have found on a blog or website in a long time (including all the pretty, pretty things on pinterest)! Thank you so much for sharing this!!
Wow! That’s so nice of you to say! Thank you!
This is just amazing! Thank you!
You’re welcome and thank YOU for the niceness!
I’m so so happy that people are doing the 26 acts of kindness! I know I’m really late… But it’s never too late to be nice, right?? :D another idea I had (because I’m in eighth grade) was, with my best friend, put an inspirational note in every locker in the locker room on the last week of school. We aren’t going to tell anyone except the pe teacher, and I’m really excited!! I think the 26 acts of kindness is a GREAT way to show respect and love for all the families affected by the sandy hook tragedy, thank you so much <3 :)
Per idea #42, be sensitive about people’s feelings on the topic. As an overweight person, I personally do not like comments about weight loss. Not everyone will feel the same way and, despite recognizing their good intentions, when people tell me that I’ve lost weight or that I look “better” or “great” now, I get a little sad that I didn’t warrant a comment like that when I was heavier. Weight is a prickly subject for us that struggle with it. I love so many of the other ideas, just know your audience with this one. If someone has publicly been working on their weight loss goals, this would be a great compliment. If not, maybe leave out the “lost weight” part and just tell them they look good without emphasis on their weight.
That’s a really good point. Thanks for bringing it up. Weight is such a tricky and personal subject. Definitely better to play it safe, and avoid that part of the compliment all together.
Thank you for those suggested items of kindness. They are truly wonderful and I’ll use some of them in my business and ministry. Blest and highly favored You are!

You will never believe this; but a mutual friend suggested a “get-to-know-you” ice cream date with a co-worker three years ago. After two HOURS, we knew we were soul mates and married 15 months later. She was an honored guest at our wedding! I had declared over and over for for years that I would never get married again…then I made a liar out of myself at 57!
very special. easy to forget, nice to remember and keep in mind. have bookmarked this to read it frequently
thank you <3
I have always been a kind person, almost to a fault. After having my home robbed by people I had been helping who lived near my neighborhood, everything changed. My other neighbors no longer would speak to me and my husband blamed me for being TOO KIND and never spoke to me again. It is now 3 yrs. later. I have been alone but never gave up my sense of being kind. I recently had a delivery from winning all 12 days of Ellen DeGeneres prizes and do not have 1 friend or relative to share these rewards. It is my mission to find those people who have never flown in an airplane, never stayed in a hotel, or who do not own a computer, to share all of this joy. People need to remember that kindness does not cost a thing and will be remembered for eternity. Perhaps I can save myself while I am helping others. God has been carrying me for a long time and now it is my turn to carry others. Mahalo for this special page filled with wonderful thoughts and ideas. We do not need to wait for something terrible to happen to show a little kindness towards one another. Opening a door or saying please and thank you can make all the difference in the world to the other person. Try it.
Those little kindnesses do go such a long way. Especially because we have no idea how much it might mean to the other person if they’re going through a particularly tough time it could make a big difference in their day, or a little kindness could make their good day even better!
Crystal I so very much hope you get this reply…you are exactly the kind of bright soul i am looking for to shine your very wise and love filled words on my new fb page my heart designed for the very purpose of inspiring others into spontaneous acts of compassion …

Thank you for sharing these wonderful ideas! I will make an effort to do these things at home, work, gym and every where else I go.
That’s so awesome to hear!
There are so many amazing people in this world who are not selfish and are on a mission to help people to make themselves better or do some act of kindness, in that group you’re one of them.Loved your article.Salute and respect to them because people like you and others are making this world a better place.
Wow. Thank you so much for saying that!
Would you like to share your stories and ideas and thereby help to inspire others??

Would be honored to have you part of the group!

I was leaving Wal-Mart one day and I noticed this lady walking really slow and something about it concerned me. I turned my car around and asked her if she was okay and if she needed any help putting her groceries away. She smiled and said that she had a bad leg but that she was alright. She looked genuinely surprised that I even took the time to notice and show concern. I feel like it’s things like that these days that you never see anymore. People are too caught up in their own lives, that they rarely take the time to look around and notice others. I stumbled upon this article through Pinterest and it totally made my morning. Thanks for sharing!
I loved reading your story of compassion! ! You have a beautiful soul that shines through your words…I would be honored for you to share your story and ideas on my fb page..designed for this very purpose…inspiring great acts of kindness…or as I like to say…kidness….weren’t we all just full of it when kids?
http://Facebook/LovingActsOfKindnessAndCompassion
Peace
That’s so awesome that you stopped to help her, and I’m so glad that you’ve enjoyed the post! <3
Thank you for sharing these ideas. At this point in my life, I am trying to become more selfless. I believe that performing simple random acts of kindness like these will help me achieve my goal.
And since you asked Anna, here is a link to a website where I found 101 Easy Random Acts of Kindness. Some are a repeat of your list but there are quite a few new ideas. It is also in a printable format.
http://www.buzzfeed.com/jessicamisener/101-easy-ideas-for-random-acts-of-kindness#p3xogw
when I go to Walmart, I create an adventure because the atmosphere is busy, rushed and hectic. I help people when they’re shopping. When they look confused or like they cannot find what they’re looking for, I ask what they’re looking for. I find it for them and if I can’t, I find help. I wait until help arrives and then I listen. I share my ideas and recipes with people when I learned that they are changing their diet or eating habits. I do this in every isle. When I get to the cashier, I think them for asking me how my experience was or how I am doing. I make a big deal out of how good their customer services and I make sure that the other people online can hear that. Then I think them for such an awesome experience. I help people in the parking lot as well. I say hello to everyone and make eye contact with. I love all the rude people to pass by me and I smile at them while they’re being grumpy.
For those who are interested, I have a list of 80 acts of kindness ideas for children and families to do during December as an advent count-down to Christmas here: http://angathome.com/2014/11/20/blessing-buddies-80-acts-of-kindness-ideas-for-a-christian-elf-on-the-shelf-alternative/
What a wonderful post! Borrowed some of these ideas to make a small 7-day kindness calendar :)
http://blog.pumpup.co/post/104671930096/pumpup-random-acts-of-kindness-calendar-advent
Lovely , Made my day , thanks ,…i probably forgot all items as soon as i read it ….only one thing sticks >>>BE NICE<<<<<,thanks for that
Thanks, Anna, for posting these great ideas. You are a gem for focusing on kindness – for it truly is what the world needs more of, and in the end, it’s the only thing that matters!
I truly love this! Sone of the things I’m doing already and some I will begin to do. May I ask what the 26 day challenge is? I would like to take part. When will it begin? Or do I do it on my own?
Hi Charlene…would love to hear your stories on our fb page…
http://Facebook/LovingActsOfKindnessAndCompassion

Would love to hear all your stories and ideas!!
Let’s help each other inspire compassionate living!!
http://Facebook/LovingActsOfKindnessAndCompassion
I think that these are really good ideas and they should be used more
I’m glad to hear that you agree!
I love this list but I have to agree with Megan about idea 42- I was feeling happy and good reading the list until I got to that and it felt like an instant smack in the face and for a split second made me kind of hate myself since I wasn’t expecting it… It really is not a compliment or an act of kindness for someone- this post did a great job of explaining why, much better than I – http://fitisafeministissue.com/2013/04/11/youve-lost-weight-you-look-great-isnt-a-compliment/ . But other than that this really is a beautiful list and I hope to be able to do many of these!
Thanks for bringing that to my attention. I love it when we can share different experiences with each other. I never considered that saying that could be a bad thing.
I’ve been LOOKING for a list like this!!!!
You know there is this kid who has a really rare illness,and he WANTS MAIL!! He’s only 5. The link for the website with his address. http://www.buzzfeed.com/a-5-year-old-with-an-inoperable-brain-tumor-has-a-simple-bir#.yxngWDgMw
Some really good suggestions here …not only for being kinder but also becoming a much nicer person. Thank you ! God bless.
completely agree with you! :)
I agree too really good point suggestion
Thank you for the inspiring post!
this i really very nice.It feels good to make people around you feel appreciated and happy.I hope i can do this my entire life.
Appreciation from Kenya
Wow!! this is so sweet and exceptional!
though, i wished these acts are kinda normal among humans! :(
But thanks you made my day!! and im definitely will share this as much as i can!
Wow, what an encouraging post! What Jesus looks like in a human being. Thanks for sharing!
I just love your post! It has got so many kindness acts to try and I’m thinking where to start off! Haha!
Cheers!
we all just make mistakes but we are all just beautiful people at the end of the day
What a great post! I love these ideas, but I want to say that you shouldn’t ask someone if they’ve lost weight, because that isn’t always a good thing:) Overall, amazing article!
I loved going through that list
Number 13 is something that we all can do! Love it.
I love this post. I like to re-read it once and a while. All the ideas make me smile and believe that the world is a beautiful place, where beautiful people are genuinely concerned about others. Thank you.
This is so great I love this. I made a kindness box so every day I pick a random pice of paper that has one of these things on it and I do that one that day and then I start over when I run out. I am just a kid and this was helpful
Awesome ideas. Thanks so much for sharing. Great profile photo by the way.
This is an Excellent Idea for Random Acts Of Kindness, BUT as a very shy person I haven’t been always well received with these offers & has put me off.
I offer to help someone move & find they never ask me or say oh thanks I’ve had heaps of offers & never get back to you.
Or you compliment someone, they look at you as if UM whatever.
I find if I offer help in a supermarket I am looked at sideways as if what would you want to do that for.
As I am very very shy this doesn’t help at all actually.
Though I do find if I leave extra money in parking meter etc or let people merge in traffic, little things like that or buy someone a parcel & randomly leave it by the front door with a note from a friend, be better
We all help each other and the only way is to help one another and we REALLY can change the world……. Put up signs in your nabhor hood that says nice things?????????????????? be. Like the people who inspire you
Thanks for the great ideas!!!
This is truly a special article. The world needs some kindness spreading all around.
You show your Act of kindness by publishing this list. THANK YOU FOR TRYING TO MAKE DIFFERENCE ON SOMEONES LIFE.
this is so cool. if everyone in the world could adopt these virtues, then this world would be a better place…
Some really good suggestions here …not only for being kinder but also becoming a much nicer person. Thank you !
Just a friendly suggestion, I would take “ask someone if they’ve lost some weight” off. Little comments like that, if you don’t know the background of the person you’re saying it to, can be really damaging. You never know if someone has lost weight because they’re very sick, starving themselves, etc. I once overheard a conversation where one woman was just gushing over how skinny the other one was, and the second woman went on to let us all know that it’s because of cancer and her chemo treatments. Not everyone is actively trying to lose weight, and you just never know. And to someone like myself, who is in eating disorder recovery, these kinds of comments can trigger an obsessive cycle all over again. There are so, so many wonderful ways to compliment people without commenting on their weight or body! :)
Wonderful-thank you
I strongly believe that I have been guided by a special
touch and feeling to help me do what ever I can for
people that are in need.
I have given money to individuals at Dollar Stores….
Paid for meals at restaraurants……….
Given gifts for adults and children at CRISTMAS.
Mailed checks….through third parties to help
individuals in need of finances.
Recycle computers to raise money for paralyzed
and wounded military men and women.
May GOD bless all human beings that need help.
Thank you for sharing those wonderful experiences.
Such a wonderful list! Pinned.
Thank you!
Hi anna
thanks for sharing the list glad to here.
I’ve found that just being tolerant, polite & smiling at everyone that I make eye contact with has greatly affected me as a human being. I used to be angry, bitter & only concerned with my own little world, even in public. Then I met a lady who became my friend & changed my whole perception of life & love. Sadly she passed away only a year into our friendship, but her inner beauty & infectious goodness had such an everlasting impact on me & literally transformed my inner core. In honor of my beautiful friend Liz, I made a view to start practicing more tolerance, kindness & compassion in every encounter I have with another person, no matter who, what, when, where or why. The change in me is obvious to all & has brightened my existence. I know in my heart that at least once I day I make at least one person feel better with something as small as a smile & the rewarding feeling deep within my spirit is immeasurable in human terms.
Hi Lori! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful ideas and the inspiration Liz gave you. I agree with you. We would be lucky to have you in our Facebook community to share the spirit. Here’s the link: SpendingFastersGroup.com
I wish you a Wonderful New Year!!

I love your comments but feel I must say as much as it’s great to leave coins in children’s library books and the delight that follows when kids find it five dollar notes are better because my young child found a coin at home and immediately laid down to play with it which of course fell straight in her mouth turned sideways and blocked her breathing luckily I saw it pounced on her had to somehow turn the coin in her throat and fish it out it all ended with a healthy screaming distressed child who grew up with No memory of it so please guys notes please
Wow. How scary! Thank you sharing that story and for the heads up. Yes, we definitely wouldn’t want any kids to be harmed!
